"connection closed" error? (beehaw.org)

Tried to make a post, wrote the whole thing on mobile then it failed and I got a "connection closed" error (yay mobile lol).

Been confused about if Lemmy on Jerboa is repeatedly logging me out or what. Is it just me or is the influx of users causing a lot of issues with other people too?

I’ve been getting a 500 error from time to time on mobile as well, I’m assuming it’s just the server hiccuping from the influx of new users.

Yeah, makes sense. I've had a variety of errors, wasn't sure if the server was down and I should come back later or if something else was going on that I needed to figure out.

I've gotten this as well on Jerboa and I believe it is just caused by the increased traffic on Beehaw recently. "connection closed" is just what the app calls that issue when the server is unable to respond properly.

Makes sense. I had a power outage at my place earlier so I wasn't sure if something else was going on.

Usually the hug of death causes a site to produce a general error, but this seemed more transient.
